Custom Report Policy

Software by CMJ Designs Inc. comes with over 200 built-in reports. Most reports are already in our software, so be sure to check the Reports pull down menu before requesting a custom report to be written. However, if you would like to request a custom report, please follow the steps below:

  1. Please e-mail support@cmjdesigns.com and provide the following information:
    1. A complete, detailed description of what report you would like.
    2. An example of the report that includes sample numbers.
  2. You can view and fill out the "Procedure for Custom Reports" document online, which explains the custom report policy and also obtains a payment method and description of the report: http://www.cmjdesigns.com/forms.

Due to database structure, the report may or may not be feasible, but we always do our best.
  4. You will be charged the non-refundable $39 and told that additional work on the report is $85 per hour. A custom report usually takes 1-2 hours, but could be longer or shorter.
